i know you've endorsed republican scott brown who is trailing in the polls to elizabeth warren. what do you think his chances are of winning at this point? >> scott is an immensely appealing candidate. he and i are very similar in our outlook. we both are people who will make deals across the aisle and work with people across the aisle to forge something that can be appetizing to everybody. i think that's what you need in washington. and that's scott brown's biggest selling point is that we need people in washington who will do that. i think the country instinctively understands that. so i think that's his chance. i think he's got a real good chance. >> okay. former massachusetts governor william weld, thanks for joining us. >>> office politics with the morning joe team. joe's going to tell me about the biggest thrill of his life and whether he thinks he has greater influence on tv than he did in congress. >>> but first, number three on our first five web stories. a risk of fire is forcing banana boat to recall 23 sunscreen products. yep, i said fire because at least five people

over 30 i say elizabeth warren wins. last week it was close to 30. now we see it in the teens again. that's why scott brown has moved ahead i think. >> another race where the presidential race is looming large is my home state of virginia where we have tim ka e kaine, who is the former governor of the state. george allen's major argument is he's too close to the president. if the president wins virginia, kaine wins. the other interesting thing is how remarkable the shift in the debate on women's healthish use and abortion has been in the state largely because of a very ugly and contentious debate this year about personhood and trans vaginal probes in virginia. in the debates it's a huge topic. they got into the weeds of discussing how contraception works, which is crazy. >> do they know? >> one did. one of them did. >> always good to hear old white men talking about that. >> how contraception works. you can look at kaine's website what he said about abortion then and now. his position hasn't changed, but the way he frames it is totally different. in

"to be president you have to win states not debates and mitt romney has a problem. romney has not put away a single one of the must have states, president obama remains the favorite because he only needs to win a couple of the toss-ups, mitt needs to win most of them." jonathan chait put it "this say bluff. romney is carefully attempting to project an atmosphere of momentum,
